You're looking at an official government website, of course, they're not going to tell you about free and simple solutions. There is no way for the gov't to trace and control you if you don't take the official Covid vaccines. Wake up, sheeple!

Agreements for up to almost 400 million does for a country that needs about 76 million (based on a population of 38 million).

Really good sales reps at those companies.

Danielle Smith on 770 CHQR yesterday here in Calgary was telling everyone that hydroxychloraqine (sp?) has been approved by the FDA in the US & we should all talk to our doctors about that for long term treatment of Covid 19. I swear, it's alt right idiots masquerading as Libertarians like this who swear they are only trying to "educate" their listeners on the radio. She is dangerous & should be taken off the air for spouting misinformation like this. Thankfully, this woman who sews the seeds of dissension on her radio talk show by being an anti vaxxer, an anti masker & who believes the economy should be wide open with no restrictions is leaving her pulpit on February 19th because of threatening emails & texts. She calls them "The Mob" & while she blames them for disrupting her life seems to want to rile them up even more by calling them out on her show everyday Why would someone who is in fear continue to fire the people up who hate her? She should have been off the airwaves a year ago when this pandemic started. She knows her alt right dumb conservative base here & just plays to it everyday. In the meantime, she is Gospel to her minions in Alberta who listen to her every word.

Nope. Threatening texts. She said she hasn't slept well in a year because of the texts she receives. She also said that she has no job to go to. She said she has to "discuss" with her husband whether he'll let her reenter politics again. Well, duh??? She'll be running for the UCP in 2 years. No idea why her pro Trump, anti mask, get rid of every health restriction, right wing  Libertarian political views makes her think people wouldn't react negatively. Well Diane, you play stupid games then you win stupid prizes. Interestingly, Calgary Sun columnist Rick Bell says he'd never let anyone run him off because they didn't like what he had to say. He's a conservative columnist who supports the UCP but since the travelling Xmas MLA scandal has turned against Kenney so he is getting it both ways now.

I went into Superstore Thursday on the way home after work on 130th Ave SE here in Calgary. First time since last March. The place was packed. No one was monitoring how many people were in the store. It was like there was no pandemic. No one was disinfecting the carts. I saw just one hand sanitizing station. I got in & out as fast as I could. Not going back until this pandemic is over. These Big Box retailers can get away with it with no fines but someone who owns a small restaurant who has adhered to the health regulations for sanitizing & social distancing & is struggling to stay afloat can't reopen??? I wonder how much these huge stores have paid off govt officials to carry on as usual?

Sad, Five days in a row of increases- a small increase reported today, but still and increase. The light at the end of the tunnel is receding.

Unfortunate but inevitable. You do not want to know the percentage of patients in hospitals who receive incorrect dosages. Turns out that the staff there are human.

Keep in mind it's the test positivity rate that you should be watching. The amount of positive tests is correlated to the amount of test that are done. The test positivity rate has been going down (in WPG anyway).
